Brake Fluid Flush

Brake fluid should be changed out at no more than two year intervals. Competition use or environmental extremes would dictate more frequent fluid flushes. Because the clutch slave shares the same reservoir as the brake master it should be flushed along with the brake calipers.

Pressure bleed tools & equipment:
10mm open end, bleeder, or box end wrench, 11mm offset box end or ratcheting wrench
10mm socket, extension or deepset socket, ratchet
Phillips screw driver
Pressure bleeder
Catch bottle
Clutch bleed tool 90-88-6-215-030, or wood block to wedge against the actuator arm


Lift the vehicle, place it on stands, and remove the wheels. Attach the pressure bleeder to the fluid reservoir and test for leaks; don’t exceed 14 psi.



Fill the pressure bleeder with two liters of fluid. Ate TYP 200 and Super Blue are the same fluid, but Super Blue has a dye added.
